the critics Allmusic: "Daddy Yankee did more than anyone to establish reggaetón as a marketable music style during the early 21st century. Yankee's success was so phenomenal in the wake of his 2004 mainstream breakthrough, that he transcended cultural boundaries and genre trappings." The Los Angeles Times: "By setting a higher dance standard, Don Omar is also ridding reggaetón of its raunchy, sexist nature. He's sending a message that the human body, especially female, doesn't have to be crudely objectified to be admired. It can be elevated to an art form if trained to move in ways beyond pelvic thrusts."

beef Ended longtime feud with Don Omar last year. Ended longtime feud with Daddy Yankee last year.
in their own words "When I do an album I don't like to rush it, you know, I don't like to make music just to make music. I like to create, to create new music, revolutionary music, music that the Latino will like, music that African-Americans will like, that the Europeans will like. So every time I come out, its with revolutionized music every race, everybody." - Daddy Yankee "There is no doubt that reggaetón has a sensual and spicy rhythm. It also had many negative connotations in the beginning, but that is exactly what we are trying to change. Projecting that image doesn’t interest us, we want to construct something productive, and we are seeing that it’s possible." - Don Omar.
